Better Days Lyrics & Video

85 miles out of Nashville, thinkin bout the way things change
Try an keep it by the reigns
Im a lone drifter, big money flipper
Take anything you got on the rocks in a snifter
I missed her in Kentucky, went down to Louisiana
I never had no lovin like I had in Alabama
A man of my word aint out to hurt nobody
Im jus a m c to keep the boogie in the party
Been singin lodi dodi since 84 and
Ill be singin lodi dodi til Im 84
I couldnt ask for more, lifes been sweet
So you can save the planet, Ill save your seat

I been gone for weeks, I aint slept in days
I cant find myself in this self made maze
Its b
een so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of this bottle of wine

CHORUS:
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way

I never thought about change until
Spend a little time where time stood still
Been lookin for a mill but I keep comin up shy
I been a broke fool, I aint tryin to be that guy
Wanna ride like lightning, roll like thunder
Im tryin to get some money, I aint getting any younger
At times I wonder, at times I wont
Sometimes I give a fuck but most times I dont
even care, through stained glass windows these eyes stare
I try to stay straight but its kickin my ass
Every time I look ahead I get a glimpse of the past
I sit half mass like a soldiers flag
Thats why my left leg limps and my Dickies sag
Its been so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of this bottle of wine

REPEAT CHORUS

Well I been all around this crooked land
I come across all walks, I shook Jim Beams hand
I got no plans and no place to go
It keeps getting harder to just say no
I see the people laugh and people cry
Thats how some live and thats how some die
Well me myself Im g
onna sit right here
And Im a watch this world break down in tears
All my fears and dark gray skies
Couldnt crack my smile or break my stride
Got too much pride, I got too much shout
I might be down but I still aint out
Got too much time and thats all I have
When I leave this world Ill still be sad
Its bee so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of this bottle of wine

REPEAT CHORUS
